Lot Essay

We are grateful to Professor Dr. Günther Gercken, Lütjensee, Germany, for his assistance in cataloguing this lot. Professor Gercken is currently preparing the new catalogue raisonné of prints by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, the first volume of which has recently been published. Gercken has revised the dating of this print to 1911, instead of 1910 according to Dube.

He records five impressions of this print, including the present one.
